The Voice Of Silence Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDC EFFE

Hath Sound alone a voice Nay 'tis not soA
Silence can speak unto the inner earB
If it be finely tuned and keyed to hearB
A meaning laden message soft and lowA
-
Silence hath secrets of the farther spheresC
And echoes caught from the Eternal SoundsD
That past all earthly and diurnal boundsD
Are symphonies unto Eternal EarsC
-
Alas our baser senses but discernE
At moments rare some faint and broken noteF
Some few words from the Perfect Poem floatF
To us Ah would that we the whole might learnE

Clark Ashton Smith
